This expression of Cerretalto has fewer hidden dimensions

(from Les Cras and Les Avaux)

Starts out better than it finishes

A medium ruby hue

A vague whiff of exotic fruit is present on the mostly white orchard fruit aromas that are trimmed in perceptible if still reasonably subtle wood influence

Saint Prefert, Chateauneuf Du Pape Reserve Auguste Favier Vintage:2012 This expression of Cerretalto hasVibrant and captivating, with exuberant fruitcake, cinnamon and black tea aromas leading the way for a fleshy core of raspberry pte de fruit, plum sauce and cassis, all allied to a lovely velvety texture. Maintains intensity through the finish, showing a long echo of pastis. Best from 2020 through 2040. 1,300 cases made. JM
